Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological and Ecclesiastical Literature [12]
(Heb. Admah", אִדְמָה , properly earth; Sept. Ἀδαμά , but Ἀδάμα in Hosea), one of the five cities in the vale of Siddim ( Genesis 10:19 ), which had a king of its own ( Genesis 14:2 ; Genesis 14:8 ). It was destroyed along with Sodom and Gomorrah ( Genesis 19:24 ; Deuteronomy 29:23 ; Hosea 11:8 ). Near the south-west end of the Dead Sea, M. De Saulcy passed through a place marked with the effects of volcanic agency, called et Thoemah, where his guides assured him were ruins of a city anciently overthrown by the Almighty (Narrative, 1, 420); but its identification with Admah needs corroboration. Reland (Paloest. p. 545) is inclined to infer, from the constant order of the names, that it was situated between Gomorrah and Zeboim; but even these sites are so uncertain that we can only conjecture the locality of Admah somewhere near the middle of the southern end of the Dead Sea. (See <a> SODOM </a> ).
